Anyone at Springfield hear how the frack sand hoppers, 50' high cubes (ex-LBF) and other freight cars are coming?

I'd like to know too, I contacted IM about the PS2CD 4785 covered hoppers and so far nothing. I hope to see them within a decade.

As we used to say at one of my employers, "the delivery of that system hasn't changed at all. It's been six months out for three years"

I'm also waiting for the 4785s - currently shown as 1Q 2018:

I am also hoping for the ACF 2927s, which are listed as "TBD"

Don't hang by anything important while waiting.

We're talking Intermountain... 'nough said. (Hey, the SD40-2W was only announced eight years ago... go ahead, do the search...)

This run or the first announcement? I've have 12 and have had them for a few years now.
